Let me ask you a question before I start with this foundation review. If you are lucky enough to have got your perfect foundation, then please do let me know how long it took for you? For me, I think it took me around a complete 1 year of learning, testing and trying to finally get the foundation that matches my skin tone and my oily-combination skin's need.
Fortunately (and also unfortunately) I found my solace in this Isadora foundation, which I bought from Germany a couple of months back. I said 'fortunately' because this happens to be the perfect foundation for me skin tone and skin type, and 'unfortunately' because I don't know where to get it again once it is over. On that note, let us check out more about it below:

Ingredients: Aqua, Isododecane, Titanium Dioxide, Cyclopentasiloxane, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Polyglyceryl-10 Triisostearate, Silica, Mica, Glycerin, Bis-Hydroxyethoxypropyl Dimethicone/Ipdi/Sorbitan Stearate Copolymer, Zinc Stearate, Caprylyl Dimethicone Ethoxy Glucoside, Hydrogenated Styrene/Isoprene Copolymer, Dimethicone, Sodium Chloride, Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Potassium Sorbate, Chlorphenesin, Ethylene Brassylate, Sodium Dehydroacetate, Mannitol, Sorbitol, Laureth-4, Tocopherol, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis Oil, Ascorbyl Palmitate, Cetearyl Glucoside, Propylene Glycol, Punica Granatum Extract, Polyaminopropyl Biguanide, Pseudoalteromonas Ferment Extract, Glyceryl Stearate Se, Xanthan Gum, Phenoxyethanol, Hexylene Glycol, Fructose, Glucose, Sucrose, Urea, Dextrin, Alanine, Glutamic Acid, Aspartic Acid [May Contain: Ci77891, Ci77491, Ci77492, Ci77499].
Experience:
As might be evident from my blabber above, I absolutely love this foundation to the core. It has everything I'd have ever dreamt about in my perfect foundation, something like a fairy tale. Ok! Enough of nonsense; let me get back to the review. This foundation is a liquid foundation and comes in a cute bottle with a pump dispenser, which I like. It gets evenly applied on the skin and blends really well to give a smooth and naturally fresh look to my skin. The foundation doesn't oxidize at all and doesn't look cakey either. It gives a medium coverage which is ok for me and it stays on my face keeping it shine free for 4-5 hours, after which I have to apply some compact on my T-zone.
Below are some of the likes and dislikes that I've felt about this foundation:
Likes:
1) Medium, natural and non cakey coverage.
2) Gives a semi-matte finish, which looks partly dewy and soft.
3) Comes with a pump dispenser for easy use and hygiene.
4) Doesn't oxidize at all and keeps giving a fresh look to my face for 4-5 hours.
5) Doesn’t' have any fragrance.
6) Never broke me out.
7) Perfect match for my skin tone.
8) Contains SPF 30
Dislikes:
1) Availability is a concern, as I've no idea where to get it in India.
2) 16 hours claim is a bit too much. It usually keeps my oily-combination skin fresh for 4-5 hours, after which I need to do touch ups.
Overall verdict: My heart is already crunching thinking about my plight when this foundation is gonna get over. I definitely recommend you try this once and grab it asap if you get your perfect match in this foundation range. Excellent product!
Rating: 4.5/5 (A) (Discarding the tiny-ini-mini-miny cons here)
